Man Taken Into Custody After Nearly 4-Hour Standoff in York

standoffYORK, Neb. (AP) — A 39-year-old man has been taken into custody after a nearly four-hour standoff with state and local officers in York.

The man was sought Tuesday after an altercation with another person, and he was seen going into the York house around 3:30 p.m. He refused to speak to officers at the front door or leave the house, and officers could be seen taking cover as a precaution in case the man was armed.

After negotiations, officers eventually entered the house and left it around 7:15 p.m. with the man in handcuffs. No shots or injuries have been reported.

Online court records don’t show that the man has been charged for anything that occurred Tuesday.
